“Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.” ― Dr. Seuss

Stress is one hell of a drug

I’m generally a very reasonable and understanding person, but what I don’t understand is when people take out their frustrations on me for no reason. Why am I everyone’s scapegoat?

I literally just checked on someone and their response was to take out their anger on me, yell at me for other people’s wrong doings as if I’m the one doing it, and conclude by basically telling me that everything I’ve been doing for them up to this point has meant shit.

What makes it even better is the fact that they were not there for me when I truly needed them. In fact, me needing them turned out to be a negative on my part. Apparently I don’t understand the concept of family.

They are stressed out and lashing out at me as if they are going cold turkey quitting heroin! I reacted politely, though.
